The Launch of Learning Bridge Market

Learning Bridge Market

[Learning Bridge • Market] was officially launched on 16th December. More than 30 guests from the business sector, social welfare organizations, parents and artists attended the simple but grand launch. Before the launch, we allowed the guests to draw unique patterns on the ceramic pots and put the plants inside them, which implied that every SEN youth has his/her uniqueness and will thrive as long as they are cultivated with care and attention.

Learning Bridge Market, the 1,000-square-foot Co-creation Space at Min Fat Street, Happy Valley, is a place for SEN youths and cross-sectoral individuals to create artworks that can be re-created by young designers and turned into corporate gifts so that SEN young artists and young designers can gain sustainable employment opportunities through their potentials. The project has received support from various sectors. The Co-Creation Space is also suitable for organizing art exhibitions, parent-child activities, parent-sharing sessions, and corporate CSR activities.

Before the launch, we had an experiential activity.

Glendy (our founder) introduced the Learning Bridge•Market.

Artist Melody Ngai was highly engaged in designing her ceramic pots.
